“I've never known Alo hobo mortar to be a spicy dish. Mine as well have ordered vindaloo. No warning it would burn my mouth off in the description. ”

“poor. the biryani was gummy-- ours in India was a-l-w-a-y-s like a pilaf, this was closer to oatmeal. the tando was indifferently spiced. i will not eat here again.”

“Ordered a chicken vindaloo which was barely recognizable: delivery took almost an hour - won't ever be ordering here again. Try Indian Taj or Brick Lane instead.”

“I had the bhurta. The ingredients seemed fresher than at other Indian restaurants but the taste was eh. The veggie samosa and garlic naan were great. Great staff.”

“Very tasty. Not overly rich, as Indian takeout can sometimes be. They included lots of different sauces and condiments, as well as a rice pudding, at no extra charge. The lamb vindaloo was VERY spicy (and I like heat.)”

“The service was nice- I ordered the food after closing and they delivered it anyway.
I had veggie samosas, which are hard to screw up, and tasted fine.
The naan was great.
But the vegetable kurma was the worst I've ever had. The flavor was very bland, and some of the vegetables tasted like gristle (I'm actually hoping it was vegetables and not actual bone as I don't eat meat and haven't for years).

“I really love Indian food and eat it often (out and home cooked). The food from here was really very flavorless and bad. And definitely over priced. Many better selections available in the city; in the same neighborhood as a matter of fact.”
